"John and his team did a great job! They were very professional and courteous. The showed up right on time and completed the entire job (~640 sq ft) in one day. They even provided a trailer to store our garage items in overnight while the floor cured. I highly recommend Epoxy Transformations and would use them again."

"He did a fantastic job! Andrew is extremely knowledgeable about the product and process, detailed, thorough, and professional. He doesn't cut corners or rush to get done. The quality of his work is top-notch. Even after 4 months, my garage floor looks as good as the first day. It has held up well to the mag chloride used on the streets to de-ice. He even went to the extra effort of repairing parts of my concrete floor before applying the coating. Andrew was always on time, very easy to work with and completed the work in 2 days as promised. I highly recommend him."

FAQs for garage and garage door service projects in Harvard, IL

Enclosing a carport essentially turns it into a garage. You’ll start by framing and finishing exterior walls, then add a garage door (averaging $1,200), windows, and wiring for lights or outlets. 

Plan for site prep and, if needed, a thicker slab to handle the added weight. Once the walls are up, insulation, drywall, and exterior siding create a secure, weather-tight space that protects vehicles and gear year-round.

A well-built carport may not add a huge dollar figure to an appraisal, but it can boost buyer appeal. Covered parking protects vehicles and lawn equipment, sharpens curb appeal, and fills what might otherwise be an empty driveway space. If the carport matches your home’s style and stays in good repair, it can make the property more attractive and competitive when you decide to sell.

Most cities and counties require a building permit for a new carport. Fees range from $60 to $800, depending on local codes and the size of the structure. Getting the permit upfront ensures the carport meets zoning rules and HOA guidelines, protecting you from fines or expensive retrofits later. Check with your building department—or ask your contractor—before ordering materials or scheduling installation.

A poured concrete slab is the gold standard for carport foundations. Concrete delivers superior load-bearing strength, keeps posts level, and resists shifting in freeze-thaw conditions. While gravel, dirt, or permeable pavers cost less upfront, they can’t match concrete’s long-term stability, especially if you might convert the carport into a garage later. Investing in a slab now can save money and hassle down the road.

Pre-made kits start at $300 and bundle all the required parts—sometimes installation, too—making them the most budget-friendly option. Custom carports cost more ($12 to $40 per square foot plus labor) but let you match the design, size, and finishes to your home. 

If price and quick setup top your list, go with a kit. If you have a tricky layout or want a seamless aesthetic, investing in a custom build is worth the premium.
